The 2 pound puppy under her looks way smaller than her. It is a scam. Besides I bet anyone of us had her, and she weighed 5 oz , We would not, in no way under no situation, get rid of her. right????

She realized she didn't have a sucker on the line. Lots of newbies that are searching for the smallest teacup or teaspoon (as I have seen recently advertised) will get drawn in by that. So she is just trying to pull a fast one.

Both my girls are small ladies. Lulu at a year and two month when she passed was 3lbs and an ounce or two and was something like 3ozs at birth. Zoey who is now 2 lbs on the money at 6 months was 2.5 ozs at birth.

Her story on that baby's weight is a crock. You have breeders on here that have been breeding for 20 plus years and none of them probably have seen a pup that small. Maybe if the pup was very premature but doubtful that it would have lived.

I would be afraid to entrust someone that small to anyone. You know the tinies crash. How could a person have one that small and knowingly sell it to someone. It would have to be a home where the person was an experienced yorkie person and they would have to be a stay at home person with no children or distractions.

Yep. I thought the same thing.

Does anyone live by this "breeder"?? Maybe someone can go and ask to see the pup in person, and weigh her? I don't think she's 5oz..but it would be fun to catch them up in a lie!!

Nauseated_Kitty · 03-17-2008, 01:59 AM

The sad thing about it is someone who doesn't know better might fall for this and waste $10,000 on one pup, when they could have gotten like 10!!

chachi · 03-17-2008, 02:04 AM

When I got Jewels she was 12 ounces and she looked smaller than that pup

MindieRose · 03-17-2008, 04:33 AM

They say that the pups dont come registered because they are being sold at "pet prices", and that AKC registration costs MORE? MORE than 10,000?? Thats a PET price? For what, and pet elephant?
There is something wrong with a pup if it genuinely only weighs 5 oz at that age. Although I think that pup weighs more than that.

makemepretty · 03-17-2008, 04:49 AM

A price tag that big makes me ill. I have heard of puppies being born under an ounce...not still being only 1 oz at 8 weeks though!

The main problem is that every extreme teeny tiny(we're talking under 1 1/2 pounds, closer to 1 lb) full grown has such a short life span. They tend to pass away with no reason given.

Right now yorkies are hot. I'm guessing in a few years even the tiniest won't sell for that high. At least we can hope. Granted, not everyone should own a dog that small but come on, you can find the right home for a tiny and NOT charge an arm and a leg. When you charge $5,000+ for a pet quality that's greed, plain and simple, no matter what excuse you use.

xxmxaxrxyxx · 03-17-2008, 06:14 AM

hehe she looks just as big as the one listed her her...they are lying about her weight..i mean my puppies coming out of the womb weights 3-5 ozs...that is ridiculous...and if i ever got one so small i would not sell it...

Bizzymammabee · 03-17-2008, 06:19 AM

Can you imagine that pup if she were so small at 8 weeks would be crashing with hypo every hour on the hour.
